| Apr 5, 2016 at 21:44 | comment | added | AAM111 | I understand that Latin is also a language, but you also say that French and Spanish are "Latin-based languages". Should there be a new tag for latin-based, germanic-based, semetic-based, etc? | |
| Apr 5, 2016 at 21:41 | comment | added | Nathaniel is protesting | My main point is that Latin is a language like English or German. It has changed over the years, but so do all long-lived languages. | |

| Apr 5, 2016 at 21:34 | comment | added | Nathaniel is protesting | Why do you consider Latin a "family of languages" but not Chinese, for example? | |

| Apr 5, 2016 at 21:27 | comment | added | fi12 | @Gilles I personally think this is a perfectly valid question to ask. I can understand all of these potential tags except for nepalese as it's such an isolated and uncommon language. | |
| Apr 5, 2016 at 21:23 | comment | added | Gilles 'SO- stop being evil' | Given that it hasn't been settled whether language-specific questions are on-topic, this question is pointless at this time. | |
